COOL ANIMAL O' THE WEEK: Alpacas

The alpaca is a South American "camelid" often confused for a llama. But they're so clearly different. Alpacas are slightly smaller and cuter. 

I was really into getting one of these as a pet or personal wool factory or something, but then I discovered this disturbing photograph!

What happened to you, alpacas!? All that adorable, fluffy fur is just a lie. Underneath you look like weird lizards. Well worry no longer, my friends, the alpaca has been exposed! Don't let these camelids fool you any longer.
